A method that defines many stages of reprogramming skin or blood cells into pluripotent stem cells has been developed for the first time by scientists. The study analyzed the reprogramming process at the single-cell level on a daily basis. Results determined that stages of cell change were the same across different reprogramming systems and cell types analyzed.
